Perched in the eastern highlands of Bali, Lempuyang Temple, or Pura Penataran Agung Lempuyang, is one of the island’s oldest and most respected temples. It’s become famous worldwide for the Gates of Heaven, where you can get an amazing view of Mount Agung, Bali’s tallest volcano, perfectly framed between the massive temple gates.
Overview
If you’re visiting for tourism, it’s best to arrive early morning to give yourself enough time to explore the temple and enjoy the panoramic views. Keep in mind that Lempuyang Temple can be particularly busy during major Hindu festivals or religious ceremonies, and certain areas may be reserved for worshippers during these times. After visiting the temple we will continue to have a breakfast next to the temple in a restaurant with a wonderful view of mount Agung. Next stop is Tirta Gangga royal water palace. On the way back to hotel we will stop at Goa lawah temple, well known as bat cave temple.
